Jack and Dani told off by Lorraine for sharing split on social media - as fans brand them 'fake'

Love Island winners Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer joined chat show host Lorraine Kelly to talk about their excitement at hosting the National Television Awards backstage coverage.

But ahead of one of showbiz's biggest nights the lovebirds ended up having their relationship placed under scrutiny as Lorraine scolded them for sharing their split on social media.

Turning to his girlfriend, Jack said: "You learnt that now ain't you. We have little arguments and stuff."

And addressing rumours that they're pretending to be together, Jack replied: "It upset me. I've not been brought up like that. I wouldn't think that way.

"We had an argument. It's unfortunate everyone knew about it, but we made up."

Viewers pointed out that the pair appeared "uncomfortable" together on the couch as Jack moved to put his arm around Dani.

"They are sooooo not a couple she's so cold to him she's uncomfortable," tweeted Marky.

"Yes try and look like a couple when you know the camera’s on you," said 'Baroness Beckie.'

And Katie said: "Jack quickly putting his arm around Dani because they’re about to go on camera. Yeah, we caught that."

Meanwhile other fans rushed to wish the pair luck on their first presenting gig from the awards, which will be televised live on ITV1 at 7.30pm.

"Good luck tonight jack and dani xxx" cheered one fan.

"I love you two," said Rebecca.

And Chloe King said: "Can’t wait love you both."

In December Dani announced via her Instagram page that the couple had split, just six months after winning the ITV2 dating show set in the sun.

She wrote that she and pen salesman Jack had gone their separate ways after "an incredible six months".

She wrote: "Jack and I have sadly decided to part ways. It's been an incredible six months, and we will always have a place in our hearts for each other, but we've sadly come to the realisation that it's not meant to be long term.

"We both plan to stay friends. I hope you'll all understand."

But days later she took to the social media platform once again to confirm they were still on.

She said: "Just want to put all comments to bed. All I can say is I'm still 22 trying to get my s*** together and grow into a woman but doing it in the public eye is sometimes hard and scary, but arguments are arguments and I love him."

She made the post following her EastEnders' star dad Danny Dyer's appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show.

He said on the chat show: "Jon, they’ve had a row. They’ve had a row, she’s got a bit emotional and I think she has whacked that (message) up and immediately regretted it.

"You know what women are like… I’m just saying she got a little bit irate, screaming and shouting, the ultimate way to punish him maybe. I don’t know what was going on but I can tell you now, they’re sweet."

Jack and Dani won the reality show, and its £50,000 prize, back in July helping to make Love Island one of most talked about TV shows of the summer.
